Quilt of Valor

This top was pieced by Bonnie in Ohio, then sent to me for quilting.  It's 65 x 84.  It is a Quilt of Valor and will be presented to someone in the miltary.




I used a red/white/blue variegated thread that shows off the great patriotic fabrics:



love the eagle on this one







I quilted stars in the center of the "circles"





There are hooks and line dancing in the 4-patches, 
and in the smaller cream squares where the circles come together






The larger border has a meander as nothing else would show
the narrow border has diagonal lines




I like where the corner pieces come together with the narrow border




The backing is a tone on tone cream
